Harry Foster Born 1908 in Wandsworth (General)
Hi
I have just been told that an ancestor of mine, Harry Foster born 1908 in Wandsworth to Annie Foster nee Wilkinson and William Foster once lived in a "castle" in the Forest of Dean (presumably as a servant). I think it was sometime after 1911.
Can anyone give me some advice on how I can go about finding his whereabouts or provide me with information on possible likely "castles" in the FOD.
I reside in Australia and I'm afraid I know very little about the area, well to be honest, nothing at all so all help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Cazza

Clearwell Castle is a mock Gothic mansion located in Clearwell, Gloucestershire. First known as Clearwell Court, it was built for Thomas Wyndham in 1728 to replace an older house which occupied same site. Its name was changed to Clearwell Castle in 1908.
The building was constructed of local stone in Gothic style with battlements, terraced gardens and a hall enclosed within a courtyard. It has an imposing gateway formed by two three-storey towers.
For a time after 1947 it lay empty and deserted but in the 1960s it was bought and restored by the son of the former estate gardener.
